I feel dumb for not knowing this (what else is new?), but I get some oofbot messages in the
errors list, directed to listowner.  Not all, but clearly there are some times when listserv
intercepts them.  Is this the ones that otherwise would have gone back to the whole list?

I'm not sure how that is handled, but I know that it used to be true that a pair of oofbots
responding to each other could generate hundreds of list messages, and that got fixed.  Was it
a listserv fix? (I can't imagine that people writing bells & whistles for mail programs fixed
it.)
